Science Tutor in Berlin available for teaching at home/online

Hi. I offer tutoring for IB (SL and HL) and IGCSE (extended and combined science) level. I have six years of experience of tutoring students in international schools across Berlin. The top subjects I have taught include biology, chemistry and physics. Many of these students were from different backgrounds and nationalities and level of understanding. Some were very gifted and academically motivated while others were struggling or simply needed some accountability. It's been very rewarding seeing students improve their understanding and grades.

Here is what you can expect when working with me:
- a proper study plan
- regular accountability in the form of tests and quizzes
- learning 'how to learn' and how to retain it better
- real life examples of concepts and a study session that is not boring. Seriously, boring lessons in science are a sin
- a tutor who is friendly and will never be upset if you do not understand something. No topic is trivial enough and my emphasis is always on getting the foundations right

Excellence: Maths Courses - for College - High School - University levels
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 👨‍🎓 With 4 years of experience in distance education, I am a mathematics teacher specializing in support lessons and private lessons. I also teach physics and chemistry as well as scientific subjects in general. I hold a Master's degree in Operational Research (Applied Mathematics) and I have been teaching private lessons for more than three years, mainly mathematics for middle and high school levels. ✏ I have taught students from different schools, whether public, private, following the French program (mission), Belgian, Swiss, Spanish (students from French-speaking or English-speaking Spanish schools) or American. In summary, all French or English programs. ✏ I support students from A to Z in all stages of their learning, using a simple, new generation and effective methodology: explanation of lessons, summary of lessons, application and deepening exercises, etc. ✏ I also prepare students for exams and competitions. ✏ I also support students with their homework (homework help). ✏ All my students have made extraordinary progress and achieved their goals, with grades of 16, 17, 18 or 19 out of 20. Sessions usually take place as follows: 1️⃣ The first sessions are mainly intended to assess the level of the student in order to determine the shortcomings noted. 2️⃣ Then we make a plan to fill those gaps: number of hours of work required, parts of the lessons to focus on, lots of training and development exercises, etc. 3️⃣ We make sure to stay up to date with the student's class teacher to track their progress and align our work with what is being taught in class. 4️⃣ Then I provide exams similar to what may be offered in class. 5️⃣ Upon request, I write a monthly report to keep parents informed of their child's level throughout the course. I also adapt my methodology according to the needs of each student, which means that everyone has a personalized working method adapted to their needs! I also offer crash courses for those preparing for the start of the school year, so that they start the year well prepared 💪 and with a head start on the program.🧠 💭 If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me ;)
